About 2 hours. Remember the tour is Hitler’s Vienna, not Hitler in Vienna. It is about the history of Vienna during the time Hitler was there. You will see the Neue Hofburg where Hitler addressed the crowd after the Anschluss, the only still existing Sybagogue, the Museum of Five Arts where H wanted to study but was rejected, the monument the the horrors of fascism and the holocaust memorial. It ends near the site, now destroyed, of the Gestapo in Vienna. It is a serious tour and our guide gave the history well. But it’s not just about Hitler.

Dear James,
I completly agree with you, but sadly we dont have any influence on how our tours are represented here.
Our Hitler`s Vienna tour starts every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 2:30 and the tour is only offered in English.
Our meeting point is in front of the Albertina Museum, Albertinaplatz 1,1010 Wien, on the street level, next to the fountain and the hot dog stand, behind the opera and opposite the tourist information - just look for our green umbrella!
To reach the Good Vienna Tours meeting point in front of the Albertina, take the underground lines U1, U2 or U4, disembark at Karlsplatz, take the “Oper” exit, go around the State Opera House (Staatsoper), and there you will see our green umbrella. Tram lines 1, 2, 0, D and 71 bring you to the “Kärtner Ring/Oper” stop at the Ring Road (Ringstraße), a two-minute walk to the Albertina Museum.
I hope i could help you and others with this informations.
Kind regards Julija
